Grow tents are overrated, some wood and panda plastic does the trick!

Weekly update… Buds stopped getting bigger, she nearing her end  Really REALLY need the flowering space for her clones lol

Sea of Buds Clones

Quick pic of my “perfect” setup   So far my three cheap USB fans seem to do the trick.

Congrats on your grow there.. what LED from Amazon did you get?

Was hoping they would be done flowering soon, but seem like she still has some time to go.Peach Hybrid on left Nash right.

@RuanStix @RuanStix Bag seed lol .....The one in the image am sure is mostly Sativa, they say don't grow it inside but so far she has had no issues and buds looking nice and her clones are doing even better. other one also bag seeds had a label on it "Peach Hybrid"... not sure how reliable, buds not compact but trichomes looking crazy frosty.

Yes am using nutes, guess you referring to flushing them in the last week or so... read a few articles on flushing and I don't see any reason to do this.

"Sorry, I'm bombarding you with questions." Don't be.. that why we join forms.

@RuanStix Sup man... The order took 2 weeks. we order a lot from Amazon and delivery is always ahead of estimated delivery. Have the light just under 3 months, no broken LED's ... Am currently in week 8 flowering waiting for 20% amber trichomes, see pic below and judge for yourself.   Think not bad for first time grow.

Hey man happy 2019... I would not bother with her start over.  She is already flowering and judging by the stretch she needs way more light, as in 16hrs min direct light... keep on growing

update on bud production.

Last day of 2018 planting my seeds felt like yesterday. As one grows older, time seems to speed up and you realize how precious our time on this planet is. All you growers and non-growers ot there have a great and healthy 2019 and remember KEEP ON GROWING!

Clone update. 

Have not bonded much with them this month and they are growing strong. One thing i have noticed is that one of my clones,I used rooting powder, has some funny leaves going on but in all looking healthy.

I Use cheap 50W LED flood lights on my veg plants..... don't think CFL will be bright enough.

End of week 5 flower.

You're going to suffer with those, those epistar and epileds are prone to burning out very quickly, in the first few weeks/ months.

So far so good.. if a diode burns out ill replace it.... can't be that hard to solder on

Hey guys~

I'm about to begin purchasing all the supplies for my first grow setup. I'm planning on using a 120x60x165 grow tent and making most of the setup quite simple. The only thing I'm struggling with are my lighting options. After doing lots of research I would like to go with LEDs and currently I'm gonna go for this https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00PH1MQV8/ref=twister_B07G1X9WDC?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1&coliid=I3NWA0TLWRM29M&colid=36XJU6JJ1Y5YB.

Has anyone bought anything from Amazon? Also if anyone has suggestions for local lighting options that aren't LEDs I'm all for listening!

 

edit: probs should have mentioned my budget. Trying to stay below 2k

I got myself the Bestva from Amazon and my plants seem to love it.... Did you end up going with yours?

@CleanGreen Not at all. I've never checked the water temp. Figured if I keep the tent temp within an acceptable range then the water temp shouldn't be too far off either. 

lol same here.. Just worried about root root anything above 22 degree and this an issue.. they say.

Another week down. 

Did the usual weekly maintenance of cleaning the container and changing out water. Also defoliated a bit. 

The active air intake has really helped keep the average temps lower than they were before. Now averaging a high if about 31 and low of 23.

Load shedding not doing me any favors, RH jumping to 90's during power cuts and I was away for the weekend so my light cycle also out of sync. I hope the end result isn't affected too much. 

Also noticed some damage to some fan leaves, small holes or torn edges. On closer inspection it looks like it may be my makeshift trellis net. 

Overall I think I'm happy with how it's going. Pics not much to go on but any input or constructive criticism is welcome. 

Looking good man. Question. Do you control your water temperature? 

For anyone who like to know how much they stretch during flowering. Image are 30 days apart.

Going into week 5 of flowering.

Clones coming along nicely they 23 days old… (bottom two) Temp 27 H 53% water temp way to high according to "science"

Hey all happy 420!  New grower here started on the 18 September haha 

My indoor grow has two sections 18/12 light and 12/12 light under a Bestva LED Started a grow journal on ilovegrowingmarijuana.com see link, but will be carrying on here... Local is lekker https://support.ilovegrowingmarijuana.com/t/my-first-hydroponics-legal-grow/24494/39   Happy growing!

I have heard( think it was on one of the show from the Dagga Couple) that it's only a criminal offence for the dealer. In court how can they prosecute you for something that is legal in private but not allowed to buy. Its like you are allowed to drive a car but not buy the fuel.
